ah, yes, i DID not see the NOT. that is fixed. here is the code that is having
problems (paired down; all error checking has been removed!)
$res=pg_query( "BEGIN TRANSACTION" ) ;
$sql = "LOCK TABLE parts IN SHARE ROW EXCLUSIVE MODE" ;
$res = pg_query( $sql ) ;
$sql = "SET CONSTRAINTS ALL DEFERRED" ;
$res = pg_query( $sql ) ;
if ( $amc_part_no == "" )
{
$sql = "SELECT max(amc_part_no) FROM parts WHERE amc_part_no like 'G%'" ;
$res = pg_query( $sql ) ;
$amc_part_no = pg_fetch_result( $res , 0 , 0 ) ;
# and generate the next part number...
}
$res = pg_query( $sql ) ;
$sql = "INSERT INTO parts VALUES ( '".$make."', '".$amc_part_no."',
'".$group_no."', '".$subgroup_no."', '".$part_name."', '".$description."',
'".$prim_grp."', '".$prim_sbg."', '".$no_req."', '".$weight."',
'".$graphic."' )" ;
$res = pg_query( $sql ) ;
if ( ( $alt_group > "" ) )
{
$sql = "INSERT INTO part_group ( make, amc_part_no, group_no ) VALUES (
'$make' , '$amc_part_no' , '$alt_group' ) " ;
$res = pg_query( $sql ) ;
}
$sql = "INSERT INTO application VALUES ( '$make','$amc_part_no','$tyears',
'$Amodel' )" ;
$res = pg_query( $sql ) ;
if ( $cmplt == 0 || $failed )
{
pg_query( "ROLLBACK TRANSACTION" ) ;
}
else
{
pg_query( "COMMIT TRANSACTION" ) ;
}
